EU response to floods in Kenya
Husna and her family have been in Ongonyo camp since the floods struck her home in Kenya’s Tana river County in April. Her baby, Esha, whom she delivered in a nearby hospital is doing well but her 3-year-old son Abubakar is not feeling well. She came at the mobile clinic, run by Kenya Red Cross with EU humanitarian support. “We came from far away on a motorcycle. Life is difficult. Everything, things such as milk, cost money. We did receive plastic sheets, cooking pots and some food. We will stay here because there is still flood water in our village. There is no house, nowhere to go back to and nothing to do.” Husna and her husband were growing crops but everything has been destroyed. Husna’s son was given antibiotics by the clinical officer.
